I love your tattoo and the meaning behind it. I don't think I've truly listened to the lyrics of "Scars," but I really like that one. I don't think I'd be able to pick just one No Doubt song, but I've sang this particular one more times than I can count. For me though, it was like "little 'ole me" because of my physical size, and it became a sort of anthem. lil desiquahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12702603642296991017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1470970948526381708.post-72922375847054380652016-10-27T01:30:02.056+11:002016-10-27T01:30:02.056+11:00Oh I LOVE Just A Girl and Slide, and who isn't...Oh I LOVE Just A Girl and Slide, and who isn't partial to some Bon Jovi? Goo Goo Dolls in particular are like an instant teleport to teenage me. Goodness, not a ride to be undertaken lightly!

You ...I think that Goo Goo Dolls song is beautiful.<br />You went into a lot more detail with your songs then I did, which I like. I was just afraid I'd ramble for paragraphs and paragraphs. Plus, I didn't know how to explain 'Grey Street' (DMB) because I find it describes the depression-laced side of my life/brain- and I wasn't sure how to say that.<br /><br />Great picks!

Goo Goo Dolls, I am with you on the love for them. Such a good song and that lyric is beautiful too. <br /><br />I confess to having It's My Life be the first song that made me aware of Bon Jovi -- but, funnily, I was 11 when it came out in 2000, hah!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1470970948526381708.post-7155673448226830932016-10-25T05:46:04.696+11:002016-10-25T05:46:04.696+11:00Ahhhhh ALLLL Of these songs just yes!!!

And Slide ahhh who doesn't love that song? And I will have Scars in my head for the rest of the day now.

I love that Willie Nelson takes you back to Texas, and I think that him or George Strait will always make me think of Texas too. I love that Just A Girl became popular right when you needed it!

Seriously it made me rage that even though I was the oldest...because I was a girl I couldn't do the same things. That song was perfect for me at the time!

It...It's My Life is a great life anthem song. <br /><br />It's lyrics that get me too, and some just stick and become mantras, like the one from Slide has stuck with you.SMD @ lifeaccordingtostephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09884611147965544589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1470970948526381708.post-72070704738717427372016-10-24T23:02:09.116+11:002016-10-24T23:02:09.116+11:00Right now I am obsessed with Buddy by Willie Nelso...Right now I am obsessed with Buddy by Willie Nelson!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00688925084262789391noreply@blogger.com
